What to expect from the 2025 Met Gala
Aimee Lou Wood and Patrick Schwarzenegger checked in
The White Lotus co-stars arrived together. It’s Wood’s first time at the Met Gala but the Schwarzenegger scion already knows the ropes.
Her ensemble is by British designer Priya Ahluwalia and features some fabulous socks-forward details.
The question is what happens inside if she runs into her The White Lotus scene partner Walton Goggins, with whom she has a rumoured feud.
Cynthia soars
Her feet are planted on the ground but Cynthia Erivo is defying gravity in spirit, and in custom Givenchy.
How purr-fect
Living up to her name, Doja Cat was on theme in more ways than one, albeit this was a more subtle look than that time when she came as Karl Lagerfeld’s cat.
She’s wearing Marc Jacobs.
Jon Batiste brought the ultimate accessory
Authentic moment alert! Musician, composer and actor Jon Batiste actually knows how to play that saxophone, and hails from New Orleans musical royalty. Perhaps he’ll regale the partygoers inside with some smooth tunes.
Demi’s sculptural look
Who needs a golden statue when you can be your very own art piece. She’s wearing Thom Browne.
Doechii in Vuitton
There’s no mistaking which designer Doechii, only the third woman ever to win the best rap album accolade at the Grammys, is wearing.
The Rosses love drama
She was never going to out-do her mother Diana Ross, but Tracee Ellis Ross can certainly draw attention too. She’s wearing Marc Jacobs.
Severance star gets the day off work
Last seen battling the department of Choreography and Merriment, Severance’s Tramell Tillman takes time out at the Met Gala. It’s the actor’s first time at the event and he’s wearing Thom Browne.
The kind-of boss is here
Yes, chef! Jeremy Allen White, who recently filmed the Bruce Springsteen biopic, cuts a fine figure.
Fun fact: in French, “chef” means boss.
Zoe Saldana is giving Mary Poppins
But in the best, elevated way possible. The black-and-white is by Chloe.
